To make metalized wood composites of 10 different korean wood species, it was tested by Low temperature melting Bi-Sn alloy injection method at high temperature and high pressure condition. Metalized wood composite of each wood species had light ash color, but still maintained its own natural wood grain and wood figures. It was evaluated on coating properties. Furthermore, it also was check on effect of coating as like a changes of main color, wood grain and wood figures. The results of test were following as; a coating properties as like a cold resistance, heat resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance, durability of abrasion, and cross-cut test was proper on the conditions of the KS standard. And, In aspect of color changes, the metalized wood composites of 10 different korean wood species had a light ash color, but still maintained its own natural wood grain and wood figures. Also, the more weight per gain of alloy is, the more grey background of metalized wood composite is.

The metalized wood composites with natural grain of imported Juglans nigra, which was impregnated with low melting alloy were manufactured and evaluated in this study. And the proper manufacturing conditions was also investigated in this study. The low melting alloy with bismuth (Bi) and tin (Sn) which are harmless to humans, was applied to this new composites. The composites showed not only no defects of discoloration, delamination, swelling, and cracking, because of high dimensional stability and low thickness swelling, but also much improved performance such as high bending strength, high hardness, abrasion resistance, high thermal conductivity as floor materials. This study also suggested the proper impregnating condition, such as 10 minutes of the preliminary vacuum time, $186^{\circ}C$ of the heating temperature and 10 minutes of the maintaining pressure time at the pressure of $30kgf/cm^2$. This metalized wood composites showed 7 times higher density than control, great increase in bending strength from $131.8N/mm^2$ to $192.3N/mm^2$, and great increase in hardness from $18.2N/mm^2$ to $90.4N/mm^2$. The composites demonstrated not only high emissivity of 91%, high shilding effectiveness of 92.59∼99.99%, high fire resistance but also great decrease in abrasion depth, water absorption and thickness swelling.

용융점이 $138^{\circ}C$인 Bi-Sn 혼합합금 주입방법을 이용한 용융합금주입목재복합체의 제조를 통해 목재의 단점인 치수 안정성과 내구성의 개선을 하고자 3가지 주요 침 활엽수 수종의 수종별 최적주입조건을 구명하고, 주입에 따른 금속주입목재복합체의 중량증가율, 열전도도, 전기저항 등의 물리적 성질과 기계적 성질을 실험하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 금속주입목재의 최적처리 조건은 $185^{\circ}C$, 진공시간 10분 조건하에서 radiata pine의 경우 $10kgf/cm^2$ 가압시간 2분 30초, red oak는 $30kgf/cm^2$, 가압시간 10분, white oak는 $50kgf/cm^2$, 가압시간 10분에서 최적의 주입조건을 나타냈다. 2. 금속주입목재복합체의 외관적 특징은 전체적으로 재색은 회백색을 나타냈으며, 목재의 무늬를 그대로 유지하고 있다. 3. 침엽수 수종인 radiata pine은 저온용융합금주입처리로 인해 중량증가율은 12배, 밀도는 $6.13g/cm^3$으로 15배나 증가하였으나, 인테리어용으로 주로 사용되는 red oak와 white oak 등의 활엽수의 경우 목재해부학적 특성으로 의해 radiata pine보다는 낮은 5~6배의 밀도증가율을 나타냈다. 4. 주입된 목재는 침 활엽수 모두 금속주입으로 인해 수분흡수율과 두께팽윤율이 현저히 감소하였고, 매우 높은 치수 안정성을 나타냈으며, 금속주입목재복합체의 휨강도, 휨영계수, 경도 및 전기전도도와 열전도도 등도 무처리목재보다 매우 크게 향상되었다.
